Relocating the president's progressions for the White House, his chart shows 19Can41 rising with Fixed Star Castor. This is the degree of the July 11, 2010 Solar Eclipse from the 12 South Series: successful outcomes to long term worries. (Brady's Predictive Astrology.)

However, by progression, Mr. Obama can't seem to rid himself of a worrisome midpoint picture which has been mentioned here before:

Saturn/NN = Neptune: confusing others about one's personal stand; deception, fraud, and lies; having to pay a price for help given that is more than expected. (As in, "One day you'll be called on to return a favor"??)

Well, as you know, 00Lib00 will put Mr. Obama's Sec Sun at US natal Midheaven 00Lib43 (Sibly chart) and it's in line to conjunct his own Sec Mars/Pluto midpoint in 2012:

Mars/Pluto = Sun: upset of plans that is irredeemable; a passionate attack to achieve one's objectives; hard, hard work; working until collapse; taking violent measures; shock caused through the intervention from a Higher Power.

(Any, all, or none may apply.)

The 'Image for Integration' for the Air-Water Sun Libra-Moon Pisces blend is:

"The curtain comes down, the actor takes off his mask and, in privacy, looks into his mirror to find himself as a child of six with his imaginary friend." (Sun Sign, Moon Sign, Chas & Suzi Harvey.)

How perfect for a Washington politician and this one has said he knows of the admonition: if you want a friend in Washington, get a dog. And he did.

This blend is shared natally by Eugene O'Neill, who aptly informs us that,

"None of us can help the things life has done to us...at last everything comes between you and what you'd like to be, and you have lost your true self forever."

Well, I haven't time this evening to add more verbage, but I recommend that you conjure up the chart yourself for there are more factors in which you may have an interest concerning Barack Obama and thus, our nation. The transits for August 24, 2010 are important as well (try 9:00 pm edt at the White House) and perhaps I may add them later on, if you like.

My hearty thanks go to to LJ for inspiring this post!

From Bill Moyers:

"An unconscious people, an indoctrinated people, a people fed only partisan information and opinion that confirm their own bias, a people made morbidly obese in mind and spirit by the junk food of propaganda, is less inclined to put up a fight, ask questions and be skeptical. That kind of orthodoxy can kill a democracy - or worse."

"Corporations Are People"

Corporations write US bills

"In 1928 the Republican Convention opened with a prayer. If the Lord can see His way clear to bless the Republican Party the way it's been carrying on, then the rest of us ought to get it without even asking." - Will Rogers

"We're going to keep building the party until we're hunting the Democrats with dogs." - Phil Gramm (R-TX)

Who Owns the US Government?

"The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson." Franklin D. Roosevelt to Colonel Edward House 11.21.33

Light for Our Troubling Times

"The nations are in unrest. Times of perplexity are upon us. Men's hearts are failing them for fear of the things that are coming upon the earth. But those who believe in God will hear His voice amid the storm, saying, 'It is I; be not afraid.' "

Sometimes When Americans Protest...

"Popular Sovereignty"

"Government is not to be indifferent to the injustices that afflict society." --Hubert Humphrey

"Dear Hubert! Government is the afflicter." --Jude Cowell

A Huge Hint from Woodrow Wilson:

"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."
